Jewel Repetition posted:No, you're right, Idaho has a delegate for every 51k people and Miss. only has them per 74k people. Joementum could probably tell you why this is, if there even is a reason. 10 at-large delegates for each state: 10 for Idaho, 10 for Mississippi 3 district delegates for each US Representative: 6 for Idaho, 12 for Mississippi 3 automatic party leader delegates 4.5 + 0.60 * the 2012 Presidential electoral votes, if the state was majority GOP: 6.9 for Idaho (round to 7), 8.1 for Mississippi (round to 9) 1 * the number of GOP Senators elected in the state since Jan 1, 2010 (limit 2): 2 for Idaho, 2 for Mississippi 1 * the number of GOP Governors elected in the state since Jan 1, 2012 (limit 1): 1 for Idaho, 1 for Mississippi 1 bonus if 50%+ of the state's US House delegation is GOP: 1 for Idaho, 1 for Mississippi 1 bonus if one chamber of the state legislature is a GOP majority: 1 for Idaho, 1 for Mississippi 1 bonus if two chambers of the state legislature is a GOP majority: 1 for Idaho, 1 for Mississippi Total: 32 for Idaho, 40 for Mississippi Or, short answer: Mississippi's population does give it a few more delegates than Idaho, due to the increased number of congressional districts, but that's only one of the many factors that affect the delegate count and the states are basically tied on the rest.

Even if Trump's up in MI, he's not going to hit 50%, so he'll roughly split the 59 delegates with Kasich and Cruz will get a few.

Most candidates do a 5-15 minute speech. Trump does an hour long press conference, forcing the rest of them into the 10pm block.
